I’ve been wearing this lip gloss quite a lot since I bought it, but it’s only just occurred to me that I haven’t yet swatched it for you, so I’m rectifying this right away – hope you like!

The gloss looks like a dusky candy floss pink when in the tube, with what looks to be very fine gold sparkles running through it. On the lips it’s actually a lot sheerer than I had imagined which is still nice but obviously not what I was expecting. The shimmery particles a gorgeous though, they catch the light perfectly.

I’ve even tried to get more colour by putting loads (and I mean LOADS - shown on the swatch below) on my lips, but still it doesn't look quite like the colour in the tube (and I don't think I'd want to wear it so heavily either) – whatever, I still like (and wear) it.

The gloss is very silky (no feeling of the fine shimmery particles running through it) and is only very slightly sticky, not anywhere near enough to put me off using it though. It has a fruity scent, but no taste and the staying power is decent enough - I mean you’re not going to get through a meal without the need for reapplication but it’s better than I’d imagined it would be, to be honest!

Eyeko Glosses are priced at £6.50 from the Eyeko website and are available in many other colours – I have my eye on Soho as it looks like it might just have a bit more colour to it when on the lips.

You should definitely keep an eye on their fan pages on Twitter and Facebook as they seem to do quite a lot offers on them, and also if you look to the left of the page on their shop they usually have a free item if you spend over a certain amount too!

Anyway if you do decide to order anything from the site, please feel free to use my Ambassador code E9897 and you’ll get a free gift in with your purchase for doing so, which is always a nice bonus.
